The Farms at South Mountain

We visited one of our favorite places yesterday: the Farm at South Mountain. Oh, it was lovely! My eyes needed to see some bursts of spring and that is what we got.

Bachelor buttons

Chamomile (it was tempting not to make tea out of it all, the smell was unbelievable!)



Oriental poppies (one of my favorites!)

Hollyhocks

I adore each of their personalities!



The kids loved the chicken coop! Some day I really want to have one, but for now, we'll enjoy theirs



We brought our sketch books and made an art day out of it. Ahhh, the joys of glorious homeschooling!





What springtime adventures have you been having?? This week we are taking our spring break for Holy Week. Yes, I am a firm believer in observing Holy week and not just taking a "Spring Break" in some random week that has nothing to do with Easter. So, we've been trying to tackle some projects, do some sight seeing, etc. We hope to go have some more fun tomorrow!
